Advantages of Laparoscopy surgery is quite evident with significant success rates for various procedures. Nigerians are opting for laparoscopic procedures over open surgical interventions in large numbers.
Laparoscopy surgery
Laparoscopy surgery is a minimally invasive procedure for operation on different organs such as liver, pelvic cavities, chest, throat and abdomen.
The procedure requires a small incision or keyhole to perform a procedure with the help of laparoscope. Laparoscope is a thin tube like device fitted with a high-resolution camera to visualize the abdominal and other organs. The device is inserted in body via a small incision, and sends images on a computer.
Doctors are using this technique to treat endometriosis, which result in quicker recovery and minimal pain.
Advantages of Laparoscopy surgery over open surgery
Minimally invasive procedures like laparoscopy offers several advantages over open surgery such as:
Less pain than open surgery
More patients prefer laparoscopy due to faster recovery and less pain in comparison to open surgery.
Laparoscopy involves four small incisions of about 1.5 to 2 cm ensuring minimal pain during the procedure.
Open surgery requires larger incision which need more time to recover and vulnerable to infection.
Less infection and post operative complications
Laparoscopy surgery reduces the chances of infection to internal organs due to minimum handling and exposure the external environment, compared to open surgery.
During laparoscopy surgery, the blood discharge is very low than open surgery thus decreasing the chances of hemorrhaging.
Laparoscopic procedure requires less analgesia in turn eliminating the side effects of analgesia.
Improved diagnosis and surgical outcomes
Laparoscopy is also used to diagnose and treat various diseases and disorders such as endometriosis, ectopic pregnancy, abdominal adhesions, Crohn’s disease etc.
Laparoscopic procedures have also replaced various open surgical interventions for gall stones, nephrectomy, benign prostatic hyperplasia, bariatric surgery, and many urological procedures to treat strictures, stones, cholecystectomy etc.
